Blue/Red Buck sweep playbook

On my team we run out of the Blue and Red formations and run the jet sweep. With out confusing my players (7-9 YO) I would like to add buck sweep to my playbook. If coach's have anything on it and can give me any advice on how to do this it would be very appreciated. I'm not sure if I should run buck sweep with my wing back to the split end side. Or if I should run it to the TE side with my slot back. I just need some advice I'm new at this and jet sweep was working but now the other team have caught with us.
We were 2 and o now we lost 2 straight and its not pretty. Any diagrams or playbooks would be great Thanks in advance..

bucksweep is very expensive in its time that it takes to perfect it. to add the compliments are simple, but those too take time. During the season and with 7-9's I wouldnt add it in. You need about 20 reps a day for the series and an entire install/preseason to put it in.

you have jet in, add the compliments
redlight, greenlight, I added counter criss cross(XX) to jet to make it fun, trap, belly, down, sally(counter) etc...

you say teams have figured out how to stop it, well I say you cant stop everything. there must be a key breaker that is tipping your hat. or they know that when jet motion is ran, its sweep so flow hard! take some time to work on the compliments.

The nice thing about jet it is a play, series and a motion. If you run trap you can run jet trap, if you run belly you can run jet belly. I guess my point is, if teams are flying to your jet motion give them the motion but run something inside.

I think the best part about jet is that defenses can stop it - but to do so they have to get going early and that opens up other things.

I would say Jet Belly out of Red and Blue is in our top three running plays both in numbers of time ran and yards per carry.

We run a jet dive but WE run it to the playside to the 1 hole 7 5 3 1 X 2 4 6 8
I call it Blue 32 JET dive. is that close or how would you run it?

I think we are talking the same idea - when we run jet or rocket belly we will run it with traditional belly blocking and hug our OT's block - with motion coming and the QB reverse opening it is very hard to tell what is coming if teams are peaking in the back field. Of course the tip off is the wing folding in - which is where red and green light come in. We have not taken that step yet - hopefully next year.
